MOBILE, Ala. -- The announcement that Airbus will build an assembly line for A320 jetliners in Mobile will mean University of South Alabama’s College of Engineering students will have a better chance staying in the area. A partnership between Airbus and USA was already in place prior to the announcement, but the latest news boosts the relationship, meaning more USA engineering graduates could be hired on by Airbus.
